Hot Hot Heat is pretty cool....I don't like their newest album so much but 'Make Up the Break Down' is really good

[Tenchiro]

They're not necissarily all that new but Reverend Horton Heat is one of my favorite bands...

Amen! :rockin:

 

[Tenchiro]

If you want a really fun, but a complete freakout of a record, the new Gogol Bordello is absolutely great.

Seconded, I have three of their CD's and that one is the best, although they are all really good. The others seem less punk by comparison though.

Yes! I will have to second the Dirtbombs. I forgot about them.

9. Wolfmother. I know they were mentioned, I'm seconding them. Their sound is easily described: Led Sabbath.

Wow, perfect description.

I finally got this CD on Yuri's suggestion and about crapped my pants at the first listen. I had heard a few of the songs on Sirius before, but never really gave it much attention.

Led Zeppelin, The Who, Sabbath, Jethro Tull even, it is all in there. This is a great, fun band, ESPECIALLY if you are a 70's rock fan. I grew up on the stuff, and I love Wolfmother.

 

[Kayos]

Funeral For A Friend


Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

I like those 2 for not overproduced.

 

[Hopleaf]

Though I have to say I really like The Clientele

 

[HarkJohnny]

not in any particular order, except for maybe for the first one. All genres, styles, substyles, etc are in my iTunes but I listen to these artists most.

Ryan Adams (no this is NOT bryan adams the crappy canadian singer)
Josh Rouse
Jesse Malin
Kings of Leon
New Pornographers
Interpol
Wilco
Andrew Bird
The Rosebuds
Ray LaMontagne
Pete Yorn
Ratatat
Johnny A.
Old 97s
Heartless Bastards
Greenhornes
Decemberists
Blue Merle
Guster

 

[Dude]

You MUST check out Black Mountain. I haven't stopped listening to them since I bought the latest disc. Very refreshing band.

 

[MikeFlynn74]

I wouldnt say these are new- Just from what Ive seen not real public.

Lacuna Coil
Ra

 

[DeathBrewer]

Skeleton Witch is a recent one for me. most of you probably won't like it, but hey...thought i'd throw it out there

 

[TheBrewPig]

I second the nomination of Rise Against and Funeral for a Friend. Although FFAF have gone a bit soft with the last 2 albums, Casually Dressed and Deep in Conversation was a surperb album and these boys rock in concert.

My fav band is Killswitch Engage, but only if you like the music that has the heavy screamier stuff as well as the mellow type singing. The guitar work is outstanding.

When I was in Austin in 2003 there was a great local band called "Canvas" (I think). Those guys were great!

 

[heinz57]

A new guy I've been listening to calls himself The Dear Hunter.

Very new, and absolutely not over produced.

Bullet For my Valentine

Try Calexico, Supersuckers, Wilco, Soft boys (underwater moonlight)

+1 for the Supersuckers. A year or 2 ago I seen them open up for Social Distortion and it was the first time I was ever so impressed with an opening act that I had to find out about them. Since then I've got pretty much most of their colleciton plus the lead singer's solo albums. They are generally a hard rock band with punk and country flavor. The 2 solo albums are "outlaw" country type discs (a bunch of covers and some originals).

Last Saturday I seen them play a double set (first set with the lead singer and another player doing a country set) followed by the full band. I was up front and got a boat load of pictures and was able to grab the setlist and he signed it for me. Real nice guy, talked to him for a good couple of minutes. The best place to start with them is probably "Motherf**ckers Be Trippin".

 

[janzik]

I tend to rock, but here are a few gems of mine from the last 4-5 years

Mike Ness (lead singer of Social Distortion) "Cheating at Solitiare" - country rockabilly, very derivitive, very good

Rise Against - anything really - The heir apparent to Bad Religion

AFI - Decemberunderground - it blew me away. still does, in fact

Another vote for Mike Ness and Rise Against...

 

[Danny013]

PRIMUS SUCKS!

Can't believe no one has thrown them out here yet. Bad ass talented musicians on acid. Doesn't get any better than that, no sir!

Other than that, check out some Tool, RHCP, Queens of the Stone Age, Beastie Boys. If you like the harder stuff definitly check out Opeth's newest Ghost Reveries. Excellent metal album.

You, my friend, have great taste.

The new BFMV album is pretty cool.

I'm seeing KsE on the 24 and 27 this month. Once at a festival, the second time their own show. It gonna be sweet.

If you're a fan of Neon Bible, there are some other great Canadian bands going on right now. Check out the New Pornographers (album "Mass Romantic" for straight-ahead rock, "Challengers" for more alternative). They're great. Broken Social Scene's eponymous album is good. If you want something less straight-ahead, check out the individual projects of some of the people in these 'supergroups'; Dan Bejar's "Destroyer", Emily Haines's "Metric", Feist or Neko Case as themselves, etc.

Outside of Canada, one of the albums which I always associate with Neon Bible (perhaps simply because I got it at the same time) is The Crane Wife by the Decemberists. It's good stuff, includes some neat singles, a broken-up three song suite, and one massive prog epic track in the middle. It's fun times, they're great and entertaining.

There are some straight-ahead college-rock bands, like "OK Go" or "Clap Your Hands Say Yeah", that are catchy if unsubstantial, and worth a look.

I've been listening a lot these days to a catchy, wimpy Scottish band called Belle and Sebastian, but that's not everyone's thing. You can get as wacky as you want: Fiery Furnaces for silly and fun electronic pop, Panda Bear for Brian-Wilson-esque spacy-indie (you'll see what I mean), DeVotchKa for epic pan-ethnic operatic folk-rock, Joanna Newsom for sprawling poetic songs and a harp and an untrainable voice. . .

I'm going to stop myself before I start talking about Cat Power or the Animal Collective or Dan Deacon or Clor or Sunset Rubdown or . . .

There's a lot of good music being made right now. It's just not on the radio.

 

[PeteOz77]

Southern Culture On The Skids "SCOTS"

"Plastic Seat Sweat" is awesome! Followed closely by "Liquored Up and Laquered Down"

You're quite the night owl. There certainly isn't much on the radio around here. I used to like Onion River Radio (mellow but good), but somebody killed that.

Load up some Led Zeppelin and tell me any modern bands come close to their level of talent. All hail the mighty Zep! :rockin:

 

[Brakeman_Brewing]

Its nothing new, but I would say check out some Built To Spill and Dinosaur Jr

Maybe check out The Thermals as well
